Who else is feeling the heat this August? With the temperatures soaring, we've been leaning heavily on our grill to keep the kitchen cool. As my husband has been the grill master lately, I felt inspired to create a special card just for him. Turns out, inspiration can strike anywhere!
This 5x5-inch square card is packed with layers. I played with different textures and shapes, combining scallops, lace, and straight edges for plenty of visual interest. You might think lace is an odd choice for a masculine card, but I think it adds a subtle touch without being too frilly.
The centerpiece is a chipboard grill embellishment. For the grill's background, I used strips of Beer Washi Tape to give it a fun, beer-themed vibe - because what's grilling without a beer? I topped the grill with another chipboard piece that says, "Hot" and hand-wrote "You're" on the grill to complete the playful message.
To finish, I added some extra touches from Eyelet Outlet: Beer Brads and BBQ - Apron & Grill Brads. A few Red Pearl Hearts decorate the grill lid, and Heart Jewel Bling accent each corner, adding a final pop of "red hot" color.
